Fighting the Opioid Crisis in New Mexico With Matt Baca, Senior Counsel to NM Attorney General Hector Balderas and Emily Kaltenbach of NM Drug Policy Alliance Hosts: Miranda Viscolli and Rev. Holly Beaumont.
At Collected Works Bookstore..
Since 2008, New Mexico has had one of the highest rates of drug overdose deaths in the United States. Between 2008-2012, almost every county in New Mexico had a higher drug overdose death rate than the rate for the entire United States.

On September 7, 2017, the NMAGO filed a complaint against companies who either manufacture opiate-based analgesic pain medications (“opioids”) or who distribute those opioids from the manufacturers to pharmacies.
